Shika/Jpn/Sound/Spring 17/3/2014

It was the first time in my life witnessing season change from Tokyo snowy winter to warm windy Spring. I felt that i've never missed the sun before but after long cold winter, squinting at the big ball of fire and i feel like the small battery icon indicator in a smartphone charging...
I also noticed the small insects like spiders, moths, dragonflies, butterflies, cicadas slowly crawling out again back to life...

...with Sapako san at the park selling her vegan food. She's active in the local comunity and at the anti-nuke protest every Friday at Gokkaigijidomae setting up her stall. When i first came to Koenji and at Nantoka bar, its the first food that i ate in Tokyo before parking my ass down at the guest house.
